If the question is from 'The Photograph', by Shirley Toulson, then the answer is as follows:
The poet feels emotional because the photograph is of her mother's childhood. It had been captured by her mother's uncle when she along with her cousins had gone to the beach to have fun. The photograph brings tears to her eyes because now her mother is no more in this world. This thought evokes pangs in her heart.
(Note: If the poem is different do let me know, I will frame the required answer)
